To me, and this post has directed me a little off this attitude, always found collet necklaces of honking great diamonds always very uninteresting, there's no real design appeal just big large diamonds in a row. I'd always though found PM's style more appealing as it was a simple design as opposed to an ostentatious one aka QEQM's necklaces.
However the fact they are individual pieces with their own histories has pulled me out of my generic thought here!
Thank you.
At HM QE2's coronation her mother can be seen in the royal box with a triple diamond collect necklace of massive size and just absolutely shimmering. I gather that none of the three could have been the celebrated coronation necklace as this was on the present queen. So are these collects the same triple strand diamond necklace HM wears? It has been said that QEQM was gifted a large collect necklace by her husband for his coronation. Please see picture below.
